Tear Trough Filler

Deep grooves beneath the eyes can create persistent shadowing that doesn’t improve with rest or skincare. The tear trough is the structural hollow that runs from the inner corner of the eye outward along the lower eyelid. When this area becomes more pronounced, it can give the appearance of dark circles and facial fatigue.

At You Derma in Ottawa, tear trough filler treatments are designed specifically to address this hollow with precise, structural support. By carefully placing dermal filler along the tear trough, we soften the depth of the groove and create a smoother transition between the lower eyelid and cheek. Results are visible shortly after treatment and continue to refine as the filler settles, leaving the eyes looking more rested and structurally supported without altering natural expression.

Addressing Tear Trough Hollowing With Precision

Tear trough filler is a highly targeted treatment focused on correcting volume loss in the tear trough itself rather than treating the entire under eye area. This distinction is important. Not all under eye concerns are caused by hollowing, and proper assessment is essential before treatment.

Our approach begins with evaluating the depth of the groove, cheek support, and overall facial balance. In some cases, mid face support may be recommended before or alongside tear trough treatment to achieve the most natural result. Filler is placed conservatively and strategically to restore structure without creating puffiness or heaviness. As the filler integrates, the under eye contour appears smoother, more even, and better supported.

Considering Tear Trough Filler? Here’s What to Expect

1

Before your appointment

Your consultation focuses specifically on tear trough anatomy and whether volume loss is the primary cause of your under eye concern. We assess skin thickness, cheek support, and the depth of the groove to determine if tear trough filler is appropriate. A personalized treatment plan is created to ensure safe, natural looking results.
2

On the day of your treatment

Please arrive with clean skin and no makeup around the eye area. Tear trough filler treatments are performed using advanced techniques designed for this delicate and anatomically complex region. Appointments are typically completed within 30 to 45 minutes, with comfort measures used throughout.
3

After the treatment

Mild swelling, tenderness, or bruising may occur and usually resolve within a few days. Results are visible shortly after treatment, with continued refinement as any initial swelling subsides. As healing progresses, the tear trough appears softer and less defined, creating a smoother and more rested look.
